Being Human

This series is doing a really good job at making its characters likeable and sympathetic. I certainly hope they do NOT kill anyone!

It looks pretty good...where are you watching it? Is it anywhere in hq, by any chance?

It is really fun. It is about this ghost, werewolf, and vampire who struggle to fit into human society.

What episode are you guys on?

We just watched the episode featuring Annie and her noir ghost-friend who crossed over. George also had sex with Nitta (sp?). That scene was really cute because he had her shirt in his mouth and this playful puppy look on his face.

Ahh, episode three. Nina would be the name of the nurse.

Episode five stands out to me as one of the best hours of television ever made.

But Mitchell already did kill someone. :/

Still, I am enjoying it. George is so awkward!cute. And I loved the character of Gilbert in this past episode.

Yeah, from the first ep, it sounds like Mitchell killed a lot of people during his century as a vampire, but at least, they are not showing it or making a big deal out of it. I don't know if the female vampire (forget her name) counts exactly because she is still an active character while not a ghost.

I'd count Lauren as a kill - particularly as that mistake is really making trouble for Mitchell now. :/ TBH I never really got how easily/quickly they glossed over what happened to her - especially for George, since he was dating her, and she both cheated on him and was turned into a vampire by his best friend. But the show does seem to enjoy a tone of almost casualness about stuff that's usually used/meant to shock. Which in a way I admit is a bit refreshing, once you get used to it.

When did George date Lauren? I never got that out of it at all. George seemed to be avoiding any type of relationship until Mitchell finally convinced him to pursue one which he finally did with Nina.

I thought they established in episode 1 that she was cheating on George with Mitchell when Mitchell turned her. o.O Maybe I need to rewatch, but I'm almost certain that's how it was.

In episode two, there was the strong impression given that George had not been in a relationship with anyone since he was turned into a werewolf. I've seen episode one probably dozens of times at this point, and while it was established that Lauren was their friend, I never saw any indication that George was involved with her. The reason he was so angry with Mitchell when he found out that Mitchell had turned her was because a) he thought Mitchell was avoiding feeding from humans, and b) he'd played dumb when it came to how she had died.

Oh man I need to watch the ep again then... idk why I thought George and Lauren were in a relationship. Maybe George wanted to be closer to Lauren but because he was avoiding that kind of thing, wasn't? Hmmm. I'm trying to remember what gave me that impression now. I wonder when BBCA is reairing that episode...
